What to wear at a vineyard wedding?

You already know that I'm working on putting together a group wedding gift,
which is 90% complete. What I haven't talked about yet is what I'm
planning on wearing to the wedding.....that's because I just don't
know!!!

I
spotted a dress at Ricki's that I fell in love with last month and
saved money from the gas/grocery/entertainment/travel budget to buy the
dress. This dress is the first purchase of 2012 that I've paid full
price for -- I love it that much!!! I am just not sure yet if it's
right for the wedding.

The
wedding will be at Vineland Estates Winery. I should mention that it's
a day-time wedding. That means an 11am ceremony followed by a winery
tour then an afternoon with no dancing (no dance floor and no deejay).

I'm putting a call out there to PF Fashionistas!! Here are my two dress choices:

Ricki's gold: Regularly $129.95...bought for $29.99 (yippee!)

Ricki's blue: Regularly $79.95....paid full price.

Okay readers.....which dress would you wear to the wedding??

I
have a big push to finish before the wedding in exactly 2 weeks. I am
currently a size 13....the gold dress is a size 12 and the blue dress is
a L (I'm into a large currently, but would love it to fit better!).
You'll be seeing a lot of #pfworkout tweets from this blogger!!
